Enter to win a luxury honeymoon in French Polynesia, at the Moorea Pearl Resort & Spa and the Bora Bora Pearl Resort & Spa!

Betsy and Andrew infused their wedding day with so much personality and sweet style, that even a downpour couldn’t shake their happiness! Kelly Sweet’s beautiful photos captured all of the pretty gowns accessorized with boots and denim; the fruits of Andrew’s wood-working labor; and woodland accents everywhere; but more importantly she captured the couple’s unstoppable smiles.

What inspired your personal wedding style, and how did you incorporate your style and personalities into your big day? Andrew and I are both artistic, natural, and down-to-earth, so we knew we wanted something outdoors in the country. I love succulents and moss so I wanted to incorporate that into the decor. Andrew loves wood-working, so he designed and made a pergola for us to get married under.

Looking back, what are the moments, decisions or memories that you love the most about your wedding? When we saw that it was going to rain all day, we decided to do everything in the barn. Getting married by candle light was so intimate and romantic – I don’t think we would have gotten that feel if we were outside. Our favorite moments were seeing each other for the first time, exchanging vows, and our first dance to our favorite song.

What piece of advice would you give to a bride planning her wedding today? Don’t think that everything will go according to plan. There might be some unexpected changes. Keep your cool because you don’t want to look back and remember being stressed out on your wedding day.

Great shots!. Love how they came the shots under the rain, still look like so much fun! The boots and jean jackets, how gorgeous…everyone seems so relax and down to earth….love the jam favors, the candle lights…the photos certainly transmit the essence of the day.
